Hello, Kia ora, and 你好，
This is my first post on Bluesky. I'm another refugee from Twitter, which has been overrun by Nazis - which I now realise was a practice run for the USA.
Not comfy with calling these things 'skeets' yet. I think I'll call them 'Bloops', at least for now.
Bloop-bloop-bloop!

Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin?

56 years after the first human moon landing, every post about it draws hordes of deniers.
They think they’re smart and skeptical, but are in fact aggressively gullible, and dumber than the moon rocks astronauts collected.
It’s depressing to see, but I have to hope they are just a vocal minority.

One day, soon, the right will forgive themselves for being wrong about Trump.
They will NEVER forgive the left for being right about him.

And just like that, the cult stops cheering the 'peace President' and starts cheering the 'Bomb Iran flat' President. Without even noticing they've pivoted.

And there you have it. President Biden's 'open border' is a lie. He just deported people without circus-like spectacle, masked thugs, defying court orders, or fascism.

Finally finished a long-term project. A French Medieval army in 28mm for use with DBA rules. Figs from Foundry, Perry, Essex, and Front Rank.

First new DBA army in a while. Late Spanish Medieval (1495-1503) in 15mm. This is the Spanish Army in Italy & other places following the reforms of Gonzola de Cordoba. Pike & heavy cavalry now fight in close order, with foot supported by swordsmen & arquebusiers, and mounted men at arms by light cav
